  • What’s the standard way to finish a solid wood floor around a slate hearth? I really don’t want any raised “trim”. Have seen some really nice finishes in the past but can’t recall anything online.

    The boards run into the hearth rather than parallel so I will put a parallel piece on the front edge of the hearth but I have no idea what to do with the left/right boards to create a nice join.

    Any ideas!

  • It's a shame you don't want the raised trim because it's the easiest one. You can make a thin tapered piece of contrasting or similar wood and glue a piece to the back of it that holds it in the gap. They are a pain to mitre because of the curved surface so best to mitre them before you put the taper on.
